ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is provided for a snow thrower which has a motor, a wheeled support for the motor, an auger, and a support for the auger. The apparatus converts the snow thrower to a lawn care apparatus. The apparatus includes a pair of lock assemblies connected to the auger support on opposite sides of the auger, support, a rollable lawn care assembly, and a pair of strut members connected at opposite ends of the rollable lawn care assembly. The strut members are adapted to connect with the lock assemblies on the auger support. Each of the lock assemblies includes a base plate attached to the auger support. A first bracket member is attached to the base plate and receives a portion of one of the strut members. A second bracket member is attached to the base plate and is spaced apart from the first bracket member such that a portion of one of the strut members is positioned between the first bracket member and the second bracket member and such that the portion of one of the strut members is locked between the first bracket member and the second bracket member, whereby the strut member is locked onto the lock assembly and the auger support. The rollable lawn care assembly may include a spiked aerator roller and a water-ballasted roller.
